HEART FAILURE what next

Recommended by the NHS for my Heart Failure

Ramipril 3.73mg ACE inhibitor Relaxing blood vessels,

Combining Ramipril & Dapagliflozin requires caution due to an increased risk of hypotension (low blood pressure) and dehydration

Bisoprolol 2.5mg a beta-blocker, works by blocking the effects of hormones like adrenaline to slow the heart rate and lower blood pressure.

Dapagliflozin 10mg a SGLT2 inhibitor. Treats type 2 diabetes by forcing the kidneys to remove excess glucose through urine.

Furosemide 40mg Loop Diuretic. Treats fluid overload (oedema) and high blood pressure by inhibiting salt and water reabsorption in the kidneys.

Apixaban 10mg oral anticoagulant. Blood thinner.

Atorvastatin 20mg PCSK9 inhibitor. First-line oral statin that reduces cholesterol production.

Omeprazole 20mg Pump Inhibitor acid reduction.

Spironolactone 25mg heart failure, high blood pressure, PCOS potassium-sparing diuretic. 

So what do they do in Japan, China & India.

Japan Collaborative Cohort Study (JACC), suggests a strong, evidence-based approach to using Coenzyme Q10 (CoQ10), astaxanthin, and Vitamin B12 (along with B6/folate) to support cardiovascular function. In Japan, CoQ10 is considered a legitimate treatment for heart failure, while recent pilot studies have highlighted astaxanthin’s role in reducing cardiac oxidative stress.

Coenzyme Q10 (CoQ10) in Japan

CoQ10 was approved in Japan in 1974 for the treatment of congestive heart failure

Astaxanthin supplementation (12 mg/day) suppressed oxidative stress (lowered dROM levels) and improved heart function (ejection fraction) in patients with heart failure.

B vitamins (specifically folic acid and B12) were inversely associated with mortality from cardiovascular diseases.

B12/folate intake was linked to a lower risk of stroke and heart failure.

B12, alongside B6 and folate, break down homocysteine, which damages inner lining of arteries.

Vitamin D3 and K2 is considered a potent “dynamic duo” for cardiovascular health.

Magnesium linked to a lower risk of mortality from ischemic stroke and coronary heart disease.

Plays a key role in regulating blood pressure, crucial for preventing cardiovascular issues.

Omega-3s EPA and DHA intake reduce the risk of coronary heart disease, especially for those who are considered to be in a “higher risk population” such as those with higher blood triglyceride

Selenium is an essential mineral with antioxidant properties that help prevent atherosclerosis and maintain heart health. Improves blood rheological properties (fluidity). Heart Failure Risks: selenium deficiency is not uncommon in heart failure patients its deficiency is linked to higher 1-year mortality and readmission rates.

Zinc and vitamin C support your immune system, reducing the risk of several diseases like heart disease and stroke

Quercetin is a naturally occurring plant pigment and one of the most abundant dietary flavonoids, known for its potent antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties.

A Raspberry for the negative people and hope for the young.

From a Pensioner.

In 2024, Age UK’s Chief Economist’s report highlighted the significant economic contributions of older people, with a focus on employment, informal caring, childcare, and volunteering, totalling £61 billion. With addition contributions to offspring, Chancellor of the exchequer and charity contributions approx. £25 billion gives a total £86 billion.

There are now more than 10 million people in the UK aged 65 and over, with a growing number of them working.

Knowledge, Skill, and Energy: Older people bring a great deal of knowledge, skill, and energy to the workforce and as volunteers.

Government spending on the state pension in 2024-25 is forecast to total £220 billion.

In 2024, pensioners contributed significantly to the British economy through spending and investments, with the total value of taxable payments withdrawn flexibly from pensions exceeding £87.6 billion since 2015.

At the start of 2025, the market value of private sector defined benefit and hybrid (DBH) pension schemes was £1.178 trillion. (Yes, a thousand billion is a trillion). Two and half of this amount would take Britian with a National Debt estimated to be £2.79 trillion out of debt for the first time since 1890. All down to pensioners and their thrift and diligence in handling money.

Those of us 80yr olds need reminding of Christopher Lee in the ‘AVENGERS ‘ 1967 Never Never Say Die. Same hype just another day.
